Tips

To extend your stay, add an extra day for a boat trip to the nearby island of **Mannar** for deeper exploration of the coral reefs, or enjoy a sunrise trek to the **Dhanushkodi Lighthouse**. If you’re short on time, skip the snorkeling and simply relax on the beach; you’ll still experience Rameshwaram’s spiritual ambiance and stunning coastal scenery.
